ENERGY-SAVING Your Danby appliance is designed to be highly efficient in
energy savings. Follow these recommendations for greater
TIP** efficiency.
1) Select a thermostat setting that suits your
comfort needs and leave at that chosen
setting.
2) The air filter is very efficient in removing
airborne particles. Keep the air filter clean at
all times.
3) Use drapes, curtains or shades to keep
direct sunlight from penetrating and heating
room, but do not allow drapes or curtains to
obstruct the air flow around the unit.
4) Start your air conditioner before the
outdoor air becomes hot and uncomfortable,
to avoid an initial period of discomfort while
the unit is cooling off the room. Use of the
automatic start/stop programmable TIMER

utilized to the fullest extent.
5) When outdoor temperatures are cool
enough, turn the air conditioner off and use
the FAN MODE. This circulates indoor air,
providing some cooling comfort while utilizing
less electricity.
